Sacroiliac (SI) Joint Injections
Targeted Relief for Lower Back and Hip Pain
A Sacroiliac (SI) Joint Injection is used to treat pain originating where the spine meets the hip. This procedure is both diagnostic and therapeutic, helping our specialists identify if the SI joint is the true source of your discomfort while providing immediate anti-inflammatory relief.
Common Symptoms of SI Dysfunction
Patients often report pain in the lower back, buttocks, or upper legs that worsens with prolonged standing or when climbing stairs. SI joint dysfunction can often mimic the pain of a herniated disc.
Precision Delivery
Using live fluoroscopy (X-ray), we ensure the medication is delivered directly into the joint space for maximum effectiveness.
Lasting Relief
The combination of anesthetic and corticosteroid reduces inflammation, allowing for improved mobility and engagement in physical therapy.
Conditions Treated
- Sacroiliitis (Joint Inflammation)
- Post-Traumatic Joint Injury
